After a one-week break, the Machineseeker EHF Champions League is back with a bang — the MOTW in Barcelona is the rematch of last season’s final. Barça, the only team with a maximum of six points in group B, will host Aalborg. Szeged, second in the standings of group B, face a difficult trip to Zagreb, while Kielce will try to bounce back in Magdeburg.

In group A, two teams have the optimum of six points by now — Sporting CP and Dinamo Bucuresti — but they have tough away tests ahead. At Veszprém, the hosts and Dinamo will face their former coaches, while three teams in the same group hope for their first points.
